According to a recent report from The Telegraph, Newcastle are ‘set to make a firm bid’ for Hull City winger Jarrod Bowen in the January transfer window.
Steve Bruce has made it clear that he has the backing of the Magpies owner Mike Ashley and he is ready to spend money on new players this month.
Newcastle are expected to face tough competitions for Bowen’s signature, with The Mirror reporting that Aston Villa and Tottenham are keeping tabs on the 23-year-old forward.
Bowen would be an excellent signing for the Magpies, but they have been put off by an asking price of more than £20 million.
